Remember the wars between VHS and BetaMax, and VHS won because (supposedly) it allowed porn?

Well, now we could see the same thing happening. Oculus doesn't allow porn (because who in their right minds would watch it with their own personal Facebook ID tied to it, with cameras running and connected to the internet?). But a competitor that can dethrone Oculus isn't yet on the horizon. Where is our "VHS"?

This isn't a complaint. Just an observation :)

I'm willing to bet that a sizable portion of the population would watch porn on this device even after you explain this to them.

I sizable portion already do
You must mean interactive porn on the official store? Because there are several players on the official store, plus the browser, that play porn fine.
I think you didn't read the entire comment.
I did. Still don’t know what you mean.
You can still do porn, just not in the store. You just need a website.

Or do you prefer your desktop porn to be via a .exe as well?
